Somebody showed the video of the stage being turned over when the wave struck it. Wow. Scary.

How quickly things go to hell in a handbasket. Saw the video. Who found the cellphone/camera? Did the owner survive? Crazy.
That’s the same video that is in the article.
That same video is in the article.
Oh, that’s terrible.
Let’s hope they had already come to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ prior to their final breath.
May Almighty God welcome those boys into His mercy.
There was a small boy there——horrible to watch.
They were all having such a nice time.

Ah, O.K.
Proudly posting without reading the article for two decades! /hat tip to Laz

You can checkout any time you like, but you can never leave.
Yeah, between the music and the normal sound of waves crashing, there would have almost no way to know. Even if somebody saw it coming they couldn’t have alerted anyone in time. Yikes.
I wrote a couple of chapters for a book entitled “Nightmare Gig From Hell.”
This story takes the cake though.
I don’t know about the members of this band. But, Indonesia does have a large percentage of Christians. There is a very good chance some of the killed were Christian. More sadly, others are lost for eternity.
Was that before or after the Stephen King story?
More sadly, others are lost for eternity.
><><
Yeah, anyone who is not a Christian goes to hell for eternity when they die./S
Yes, that is true. Which makes my job all the more urgent.
We already had a savior. Do we really need another?
Merry Christmas.
Indonesia is majority muzzie. Their imams will be denouncing the pop band for bringing Allah’s wrath in the form of a tsunami.
Allah hates music.
